Package: libpcap0.8
Version: 1.1.1-3
Severity: minor
The extended description contains:
Since almost every system vendor provides a different interface for
packet capture, and since there are several tools that require this
functionality, we've created this system-independent API to ease in
porting and to alleviate the need for several system-dependent packet
capture modules in each application.
We, have no idea what "we" refers to. Presumably "we" refers to the
libpcap developers, but there is no way to tell. Please avoid "we" in
package descriptions, and stick to an encyclopedic tone. Instead of "We
created foo to solve problem bar.", "foo addresses problem bar.".
